This manga feels weird in the way they are ignoring the most common thing a Sword Saint will do if somebody is extremely racist and nepotist in front of him (more precisely if they disrespect they sword art)

...you know the slash, slash, chop, chop, cut, cut part in front of their enemies

I can't recommend this one. First, you get nothing new. Overpowered MC taking unpopular courses, overly despicable classmates to the point it's ridiculous etc.
The author also has no idea how swordsmanship works. The sword saint MC actually said he doesn't need a sharp blade because everything can be compensated with technique. Sorry, but that's not how it works - in reality at least.
This is a third-rate interpretation of what's been copied to death already anyway.
It might be good enough if you swich off your brain, though.

I just read this out of curiosity but yeah this isn't for me... it might be good for others but not my cup of tea

This is essentially a product of a Japanese who consumed way too much Chinese stories, like wuxia or xianxia.

The entire story boils down to "I'm personally great, but all these young masters keep trying to murder me because my shoes are untied..." combined with the obsession for A School Setting that the japs just love so much, for whatever reason, and you get...This thing.

Honestly, the story is actual garbage, and gets carried by the art.

...you know the slash, slash, chop, chop, cut, cut part in front of their enemies

and the most important: slash their enemies to death or chop or cut them

 

[Figger]

Wow.... Went down with the cliche right from the very start.

Reincarnated OP MC
Went to school with discrimination to MC's group
Enter arrogant fodder number 1 to show how strong the MC is
Arrogant fodder 1 instantly defeated
MC meets girl with troubled background
MC is looked down upon by others
MC showed everyone how strong he is
Another girl with a higher status got interested with MC

New Manga me happy
Less chapters me sad

totally agree with you. it's just a cliche story🤢🤢

 

[Elaborate]

Hmm.
The art is great, but it feels like the author doesn't bother examining their own themes, and just resorts to cut-and-paste clichés.

There's a lot to be said about the martial/caster divide, and this author isn't saying it.

Actually, the main problem for me is that the magic department students are depicted as so cartoonishly Evil that seeing them get beaten up isn't even satisfying. You can't half-ass this; if you bring the Xianxia-style bad guys, you better bring the Xianxia-style decapitations...

This has almost every cliche in the book in the first few chapters. That being said, I will still read it because I’m enjoying it. He hasn’t even revealed like any of his techniques yet. As long as he doesn’t go down the harem route, this could be fun.

Thanks for the translation!

I’m not normally one to nitpick, but it’s bugging me. The word you’re looking for is Discriminatory or Discrimination. A Swordsman is not a race therefore it isn’t racism. As for nepotist or nepotism, that means “the practice among those with power or influence of favoring relatives, friends, or associates, especially by giving them jobs”, so I don’t think that really applies here either but I can maybe give you that one depending upon how you look at it. (Fun fact: the word nepotism originated from the Italian word for nephew <nepote>)

I do apologize for being the grammar police, however what you said made zero sense.

As for my opinion on this story…

It’s kinda garbage. You’re thrown head first into the plot, with no real character or world building. The mages feel over the top and one dimensional, and MC is OP for “reasons”. Honestly, if a country went this route in a real world with magic, they would have been crushed a long time ago. The story is missing structure and depth. It almost hastily thrown together (maybe an AI wrote it lol). Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of mangas that make the MC OP for obscure reasons but they typically aren’t—— (stop) As I writing this I figured out one of the reasons why the MC feels so Off. It feels like they dropped a end of story MC into the beginning with no room for development and growth. Another thing that doesn’t help is the fact that the characters & entire world premise is exaggerated. If this was someone’s first time writing a story, id give them a pat on the back and say good job try again, but the fact that an artist was hired and this was published astonishes me. There is a chance that the story improves after a extremely rough start, however it’ll be tough.
